YES LOL...its nice having a big family, i guess i see it like that since i am an only child and dont have alot of family here, but at times like this I just want to scream...I mean we invited twenty something first cousins and this is just for the e-party lol...You know how many first cousins i invited -TWO!!! lol
Fh's family is the same way. His parents are both 1 of 6!!! and then he has tons of 1st cousins. So just his imediate family is like 40 people!!!

I invited all my BP members. Even the flower girl and ring bearer. I also had FH's cousins and some of mine who have kids. But non of them except one asked if they can bring there kids. And we simply said no. She did mention something at the party about the opther kids there and we simply sai dit was cause there in the wedding and that was it. FH has alot of 2nd cousins also who were not invited. but no one said anything. So it shouldn't be a problem. We did have kids there that were 14 and 16 though. Because they are older. we said no one really under 12.
I REALLY!!!! wanted our ringbearer to come, i love that little boy, hes the one i posted a pic of FH and him in the same screwball shirt lol. AND his dad asked us about bringing his kid, but we explained the situation to him, and he didnt mind at all.
Its so hard making exceptions, what am i gonna do for the wedding lol its gonna be even harder lol. Yeah i am gonna give her like a name tag and write Jr. bridesmaid so ppl dont even have to ask lol jk

I agree with most of the responses, invite her to the engagement party along with any siblings she has. If anyone has a problem with it, let them know you already have almost 200 ppl at the e-party alone and it was just immediate famly, BP and some friends. Its none of their business anyway. We didnt invite any children from the BP (we haven't even decided about FG or RB yet anyway and they would be the only kids)
I know if it were up to me i would say hey this is what we had to do, and we had to carefully select who can or cant come BUT not my family so its different...Ill tell FH to bring it up today and see what happens lol
Let me just say when theres a big family it causes DRAMA, theres someone who doesnt like someone who has a problem with this one, then trying to accomodate everyone, its hard

Re: What would you do
they have to understand that she is part of the BP! If their kids were part of the BP they would be invited too. Also, when they start giving you money for the wedding is when they have a right to say when their kids should come!

maybe they'll decide to not give us money at the e-party
You know what i'll take the blame for it, i really dont care...Like they can tell them listen she hasnt met alot of the 2nd cousins and didnt even know to invite them and so on, i have met the jr. bridesmaid so thats why i thought of her.
EXACTLY i know his first cousin and the 12 year old, i dont know alot of the other 2nd cousins ya know.

Well I really meant money towards the wedding, not like a gift or anything. Let his family react however they want to, it is your party!!

Re: What would you do
You have nothing to worry about if she is in the wedding. You would have every reason to have her at the reception. As for the others, stick to your guns. People eventually get over it. (or so i keep hoping )
